Consultant children and Genetics Medicine revealed at the National Center for Research Dr. Adel Ashour «Middle East» that genetic studies and anthropometric disease mental retardation from the Egyptians, confirmed that inbreeding is responsible for the maximum proportion of cases, accounting for 77% of delays mental severe in those born of mothers The parents of relatives, he said, he was examined 100 cases of delayed mental included 54 male and 46 female aged between 6 months and
